Paul and Muriel Lennon
To Joyce and family, we were so sorry that we could not attend Tims memorial service. We were away and didn’t get back until later that night. We knew you both as neighbours in our condo complex and your absence was sorely missed when you moved to London. Our sincere condolences to you and the family on Tim’s passing.

So very sorry to hear of Timothy’s passing. He is my cousin and his family (Aunt Marcia and Uncle Wilfred) and mine (his Aunt Annetta and Uncle Don) spent many happy times together in our youth along with our Aunt Mary, Uncle Ron, Aunt Elva and Uncle Rowlie, his siblings and all his cousins. Unfortunately, I lost track of him as we grew older but my many memories of him involved fun, excitement and sometimes daredevil events. He is the oldest cousin and was definitely the leader. In reading his memorial and viewing the pictures, it looks like he had a great life and I am sorry we lost track of each other and were unable to continue our memories. My condolences to his family and friends. Rest in Peace Timothy!

On behalf of myself and my husband Mark, we are truly sorry to hear about Tim’s passing. Sorry we were not able to attend the services today.
He was a great Lion and served always to the best of his ability.
